Tacho wire is white........you can get it closer by "peeling" the drivers side loom open to find it.........that way you won't have to join it off of the rear of the cluster.

congrats , Im glad you followed it though, you definatley got a good reward out of it

Driving a Cordia is not a Crime

today put the tach in, originally wanted to put on steering column
but obstructs to many things, cos its so ridiculously too big lol.

so just put it in the monitor gap, for now till decide what to do
wanted it mainly for shift light though anyway

but put shift light here still


as for calibration wasn't sure wether it was 1 or 2 ppr, i tried 2 first, but normal tach was reading just
below 1000rpm and tach only showing a few hundred rpm so switched to 1ppr and the idle
was close, but when took for drive nearly 2k out, so switched it back to 2ppr, idle is out but when driving
along at most 500rpm out which is better than 2k i guess. but thats the only 2 settings for 4cylinders
oh well just have to remember to set the shift light 500rpm lower than i want it for now :/
its an autometer anyone else had probs with these?

tomoz will start on audio, prob tackle the sub first

and whacked the type R's in but because have limit room between
the parcel shelf and amps underneath had to get some angled vinyl covered spacers
